After some delays because of the volcanic eruption over at Iceland Gerard Butler has arrived to Serbia yesterday, where the crew of Ralph Fiennes' "Coriolanus" has already started filming the movie. Butler will stay in Belgrade probably till the end of the week, filming the mass scenes as Tullus Aufidius, the main enemy of Coriolanus played by Ralph Fiennes in this modern-day adaptation of Shakespeare's famous play. Here you can see the first pic of Gerard at the set. It's interesting that the first audition Butler ever went to in his life was for "Coriolanus" as well, so he jokes that it took him a decade to finally get the role. Meanwhile, Serbian tabloids have caught Ralph Fiennes in one of the luxurious Belgrade restaurants with one of Serbia's most popular singers Danijela Vranic. At first he was staring at her, mesmerized by her beauty and probably by her breasts, and she even said a few angry words to him, irritated by his rude staring, but at the end, according to tabloids, Ralph and Danijela finished the evening by exchanging their phone numbers. If you want to see for yourself how Ralph Fiennes has a lot of taste, check out the video for Danijela's most popular song bellow :)

Wooo hooo! Wish I could beam myself to Belgrade right now! I'm so excited for this movie, and dear Gerry finally finds a great project to sink his teeth into. Dez, he did get the lead role Coriolanus in a stage play, so it's interesting he's playing the nemesis in the movie version.

Btw, that pic of gorgeous Henry on your sidebar is sooo distracting, makes it hard to even just type this comment :)

@Mike and Castorwell, Danijela is famous for her mischievous boobies which like to escape underneath her dresses during her live performances. She is famous for her cleavage as much as for her songs and voice :)

@Nebat least you have CONAN being shot in Sofia :)

@FlixchatterI didn't know that, it sounds cool :) And I'm glad you like Henry's pic from the Dunhill photo shoot :) Vote for him if you want him to win ;)

I did vote for him :) And yes I've seen that Dunhill commercial many times, man he's soooo Bond-like in there. I wrote in this post http://wp.me/pxXPC-5C that I wish he'd be considered for Bond again in a few years. He still looks too young now. Boy, I'm sooo looking forward to Immortals, finally a lead role for Mr. Cavill!

ah, no, Flixy :) I personally wouldn't like seeing Henry as Bond, since the Bond role usually sticks the actor in one place forever. Instead I'd like him to become a diverse movie star with many amazing roles, and the lead role in IMMORTALS seems like a divine start after the end of THE TUDORS (shedding tears). Hope he will become a new Sam Worthington after that (but with much more talent off course :) )

Michele and Vicks, it wouldn't help you much even if you were in Serbia like me. They are guarding the sets and Gerard's room in Hyatt hotel as if they were a national treasure or a vault with golden bars :)

We can drool from here Dez. Just knowing he's there, wow. Then again, if he were in Toronto, I wouldn't stalk him - well, maybe. Keep tabs on Ralph - he seems like quite the casanova - so GB wouldn't be too far away - they're two of a kind.

Hi Dez, well that's not the case with Daniel Craig who continues to play diverse roles after Bond. Even Connery managed to snab an Oscar after playing the quintessential British spy. If anything, it can boost Henry's chances to get more high-profile roles, and yes he is more expressive than Sam.

GB looks so disheveled in there, must be stuck at airports for days with no shower :) Is he already wearing a military uniform or something? Makes him look like Noriega, he..he.. JK, y'know I love the guy!

Some men just look good no matter what. That's Gerry. After a long time, finally given a role with some substance, we hope. Hollywood is lacking in the rugged, manly-types - American men/actors - many look like boys. No wonder casting looks elsewhere like Europe and Australia - even Canada.

Vicks, Serbian newspapers have all written today about how Gerard is the beloved guy among all the cast members, he jokes a lot with them, he is extremely pleasant lad, and he likes Serbian food. He also revealed to one of the Serbian actresses who is playing the assistant of Vanessa Redgrave's character, that he adores one of the most successful Serbian movies in recent years TEARS FOR SALE (in Serbian CARLSTON ZA OGNJENKU) and that he always recommends that movie to his Hollywood friends :)

It is also reported that Gerry's uniform was tight for him because of his great sinewy body.I'm always glad to find out that there are people in Serbia who are interested in Gerry's movies.Thanks a lot!

Yep, but I think that was just a joke since they know Gerry has a nice sense of humour :) As you can see from the pic the uniform is more than comfortable. It is true that Gerard is one of the most popular foreign actors in Serbia, because he has that casual, humorous and fun nature like most Serbs.

That's why we adore him and have long lasting crushes on him! He's a guy's guy and a gal's guy. Fresh, funny, playful, not one bit vain or demanding. I think anyone would want to be his friend, he's just so enjoyable! And very transparent with the press and his fans. You don't see that too often. He is all around fabulous, and so easy on the eyes, my, my.

Good point.lol I am just lurking at GALS.They invited me to join them but I decided better not to.I had bad experiences with Wentworth Miller's boards.I am poster at JJ's news about GB.The only one from Serbia.If there were GB's fan club in Serbia I will be there and that's for sure.I simply adore this guy.:DDD

Very good point. I've joined Weirdly Obsessed Gerard Butler Fans - hysterical fan site/message boards. It's a perfect fit. I don't think I'll ever get over how obsessed I am unless I meet him one day to put it all to rest - or make it worse?

Anonymous - you should start a site and tap into the fans over there. You already post news, so why not?

Vickyk - thanks for the suggestion I will consider it and maybe do it one sweet day.:)) I just read that GB was at Plastic,night club, with Serbian actress Katarina Radivojević.She was also RF's guide through Belgrade two years ago.He met some models there too and had a lot of fun because he left the club at six in the morning.Here is the link for the article in Serbian.http://www.blic.rs/Zabava/Vesti/186481/Batler-u-provodu-s-Katarinom
